@techaddressed @pfefferle I have a WordPress site to do it too but have not yet done it as there were limitations on which account it connected with iirc. The support team at WordPress didn't know much about it.

Like I didn't want it to connect to a new instance i set up related to the wordpress account, but an already existing fedi account

@lifewithtrees @techaddressed @pfefferle I guess this besides the point of the plugin. Its purpose is to transform a WP site in a fediverse instance.

@manualdousuario @techaddressed @pfefferle thing is I have a mastodon account already...all I want is to connect my current mastodon account with my current website...the rest, while I understand it's function, is too much work. It needs to be as easy as adding a "publish to facebook" button using whatever acounts they want to have people use it in a bigger way.

Maybe it's the wrong plug-in for this then

@lifewithtrees @manualdousuario @techaddressed I understand your needs, but this is really a completely different use case and solved by a lot of other plugins including Jetpack.

@pfefferle @manualdousuario @techaddressed I simply want to connect mastodon to WordPress without setting up a new mastodon account.

Jetpack may do that long term, but I haven't seen it yet

@lifewithtrees @techaddressed @pfefferle yeah, that's de wrong plugin for that.

Btw, I noticed you don't even added your site and verified it here. This doesn't solve your issue, but it's a good first step to tight both platforms: joinmastodon.org/verification

@manualdousuario @techaddressed @pfefferle it's not mine , it's someone who is an artist who has a mastodon account and would like help to share their art from WordPress to mastodon.

I am trying to help them. This is a real use case
